William Thackeray

A novel that chronicles the lives of two women who could not be more different: Becky Sharp, an orphan whose only resources are her vast ambitions, her native wit, and her loose morals; and her schoolmate Amelia Sedley, a typically naive Victorian heroine, the pampered daughter of a wealthy family.

The Greatest Poems & Carols for Christmas Time (Illustrated Edition)

William Thackeray [1811–1863] var en brittisk författare och en av det viktorianska Englands främsta författare. Till hans mest kända verk hör Den välborne Barry Lyndons memoirer, Snobbarnas bok (som också myntade ordet "snobb") och Fåfängans marknad från 1848.

Fåfängans marknad - del II

"Ecco la dimostrazione lampante che il Settecento contiene già l'intera modernità. Tutta questa adrenalina fatta di fughe, duelli, amori, peripezie non è cinema puro? Non sono i fotogrammi di una pellicola in anticipo di due secoli sui Lumière? Una volta tanto non dovrete incollarvi allo schermo: lasciatevi trascinare dalle avventure di Redmond Barry. Il romanzo è uno strepitoso technicolor di parole ed emozioni." - Flavio Santi (1973) ha scritto tra gli altri L'eterna notte dei Bosconero (Rizzoli, 2006) e la raccolta di racconti La guerra civile in Italia.
